Life paradox

My Scholarship entry - Life paradox

Brazil | Monday, November 24, 2014 | 5 photos

I started photographing because I needed to registered the impressive beauty and human potential in some parts of the globe. Living in a violent city like Rio de Janeiro, I was completely touched to see how people maintain their integrity and nonviolent attitude while living in places with very difficult and adverse conditions. Through photography I want to bring more awareness, humanity, respect to the world, I want to show the not shown stories, put light on the shade. Photography makes my world meaningful, expand my vision, moves me in the best way. I believe through image stories we can help the world to be a better place.
I’m fascinated about different cultures, I think is so important to show the diversity of life we still have in this globalized society we’re living in. The scholarship will help me to improve what I want to be doing full time(photographing), will improve my vision and open my mind. I hope to gain more experience and improve the technique and the craft in order to touch and transform people’s mind and heart. Also,live and learn about the daily life of a photographer because that’s what I want to do in my life, become a professional photographer
